Right ventricular assistance for experimental right ventricular dysfunction
Right ventricular dysfunction frequently occurs in patients undergoing correction of congenital cardiac defects, as well as in other clinical settings. The purpose of the present study was to surgically induce right ventricular dysfunction and then provide circulatory support with a right ventricular assist device.

Review Article: Management of Perioperative Anesthesia in Right Heart Failure
Right ventricular dysfunction and failure receive much less attention than the left ventricular failure. Right ventricular dysfunction or failure is associated with increased mortality rates in cardiac surgery, surgical cases other than cardiac surgery ...

Prognostic importance of right ventricular dysfunction [PDF]
Although left ventricular ejection fraction is a powerful predictor of mortality following a myocardial infarction, in certain situations right ventricular ejection fraction may provide additional prognostic information When considering the entire range of left ventricular ejection fractions (LVEF) after a myocardial infarction, this parameter is a ...

Right Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction after Marathon Run [PDF]
It has been raised that marathon running may significantly impair cardiac performance. However, the post-race diastolic function has not been extensively analyzed. We aimed to assess whether the marathon run causes impairment of the cardiac diastole, which ventricle is mostly affected and whether the septal (IVS) function is altered. The study included

Right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension: a neglected presentation of thyrotoxicosis
Thyrotoxicosis is associated with cardiac dysfunction; more commonly, left ventricular dysfunction. However, in recent years, there have been more cases reported on right ventricular dysfunction, often associated with pulmonary hypertension in patients ...

Association of tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) with survival time in Boxer dogs with ventricular arrhythmias [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) is a useful estimate of right ventricular function in humans. Reference intervals for dogs have been generated, but the value of measuring TAPSE in other diseases, or investigating the ...
